Utility Red Flag Rule Deadline Now May 1st Guest article by Steve Andrews The Federal Trade Commission has determined that utility companies are required to comply with FACTA Section 114 because they maintain "Covered Accounts," which are defined as any personal account that involves or is designed to permit multiple payments or transactions such as a credit card account, mortgage loan, automobile loan, margin account, cell phone account, utility account, checking account, or savings account, and any other account for which there is a reasonable, foreseeable risk of identity theft. The FTC delayed enforcement of the "Red Flag Rule" until May 1, 2009 for state chartered credit unions and those defined as "creditors" to provide time to develop and implement written identity theft prevention programs. Companies that are not compliant with the program on or before May 1st, 2009 will face the possibility of fines, and potentially other exposures. The Red Flag Rule requires that affected companies have a policy in place that addresses the following seven requirements: a. Policy-Published Red Flag Policy, b. Train-Training delivered to all employees, c. Detect-Steps to Detect attempts at Identity Theft, d. Prevent-Steps to Prevent instances of Identity Theft, e. Mitigate-Defined plan to Mitigate the effects of Identity Theft, f. Oversight-Oversight of Service Providers, g. Ensure-Documented process to Ensure program works over time For more information on this article and compliance have your Corporate Compliance, Risk, and/or Legal departments contact Steve Andrews at 678.772.4518 or steve.andrews@oscapitalgroup.com with any questions or for assistance in reviewing or developing your company's Red Flag Compliance Program. |

| 09/2008 | Getting the Numbers You Need with Spend Visibility Solutions Here is a quote from automobile industry executive vice president of procurement at Chrysler, John Campi, of his plan to cut supply chain costs: “I've set an arbitrary aggressive target of 25 percent cost out of the supply chain," said Campi. According to DetNews, Campi plans to do it by improving supplier relationships. Citing the numbers, Campi says that they’ve identified that 800 suppliers together supply just 5 percent of its parts (from DetNews). Apparently, a supplier reduction is a possibility. But how do they get these crucial numbers to base their decisions on supply chain operations and supplier relationship management? Better yet, how can you get visibility in your supply chain operations, improve supplier relations, and cut costs by rationalizing your supplier base? Spend analysis is paving the way for procurement managers to analyze spend and see major opportunities. Enporion provides spend analysis to you using innovative software that has the power to deeply partition out commodities, suppliers, pricing, and other data into quantifiable and actionable information. For example, there may be a similar situation going on in your company -- too many suppliers to manage. The number of relationships and contracts could be reduced by analyzing the best scenarios and suppliers based on quality, delivery delays, capacity, or other data. If you’d like to participate in a brief discussion, or have our professional services team analyze a segment of your spend for a “quick win” opportunity for savings, contact us. We will provide a short form to gather a small sample of data for you to get started risk-free, with no upfront costs. More on Spend Visibility Solutions...
